# Code of Conduct | ||
|
||
## Our Pledge | ||
|
||
The Qiskit Community is dedicated to our values of treating every individual | ||
with respect and dignity. In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming | ||
environment, all participants, including attendees, speakers, sponsors, | ||
volunteers, online contributors, and IBM employees are expected to show | ||
courtesy for each other and our community by creating a harassment-free | ||
experience for everyone, regardless of age, personal appearance, disability, | ||
ethnicity, gender identity and expression, body size, level of experience, | ||
nationality, race, religion, caste, or sexual identity and orientation. | ||
Expected behavior applies to both online and offline engagement within the | ||
Qiskit Community. | ||
|
||
## Scope | ||
|
||
The purpose of this Code of Conduct is to define and enforce the values and | ||
conduct of contributors and participants in the Qiskit open source community. | ||
The Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces | ||
when an individual is engaging with the Qiskit open source community. Examples | ||
include attending a Qiskit event, contributing to online projects, commentary | ||
on Slack, or representing a project or community, including using an official | ||
project e-mail address, posting via an official social media account, or | ||
acting as an appointed representative at an online or offline event. | ||
Representation of a project may be further defined and clarified by project | ||
maintainers. | ||
|
||
## Our Standards | ||
|
||
Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment | ||
include: | ||
|
||
- Using welcoming and inclusive language | ||
- Being respectful of differing viewpoints, experiences, and cultures | ||
- Gracefully accepting constructive criticism | ||
- Focusing on what is best for the community | ||
- Showing empathy towards other community members | ||
- Being mindful of your surroundings and your fellow participants and listening | ||
to others | ||
- Valuing the contributions of all participants | ||
- Engaging in collaboration before conflict | ||
- Pointing out unintentionally racist, sexist, casteist, or biased comments and | ||
jokes made by community members when they happen | ||
|
||
Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants, even when presented as | ||
"ironic" or "joking," include: | ||
|
||
- The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome physical contact, | ||
sexual attention, or advances | ||
- Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks | ||
- Public or private harassment, including offensive or degrading language | ||
- Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic | ||
address, without explicit permission. This includes any sort of "outing" of | ||
any aspect of someone's identity without their consent. | ||
- "Doxxing," Publishing screenshots or quotes, especially from identity slack | ||
channels, private chat, or public events, without all quoted users' explicit | ||
consent. | ||
- Engaging in spamming activities, such as repeatedly sending unsolicited messages, LLMs (Large Language Models) output, advertisements, or promotional content to community members without previous IBM authorization. | ||
- Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a | ||
professional setting | ||
|
||
## Responsibilities & Enforcement | ||
|
||
The entire Qiskit community is responsible for upholding the terms of the Code | ||
of Conduct in Qiskit Community events and spaces and reporting violations if | ||
they see them. The internal Qiskit team at IBM is ultimately responsible for | ||
clarifying the standards of acceptable behavior and enforcement, and is expected | ||
to take appropriate and fair corrective action in response to any instances of | ||
unacceptable behavior. | ||
|
||
If a participant or contributor engages in negative or harmful behavior, IBM | ||
will take any action they deem appropriate, including but not limited to | ||
issuing warnings, expulsion from an event with no refund, deleting comments, | ||
permanent banning from future events or online community, or calling local law | ||
enforcement. IBM has the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject | ||
comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are | ||
not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to temporarily or permanently ban any | ||
contributor or participant for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate, | ||
threatening, offensive, or harmful. | ||
|
||
If you see a Code of Conduct violation: | ||
|
||
1. If you feel comfortable, let the person know that what they did is not | ||
appropriate and ask them to stop and/or edit or delete their message(s) or | ||
comment(s). | ||
2. If the person does not immediately stop the behavior or correct the issue, | ||
or if you're uncomfortable speaking up, flag a moderator and, if appropriate, | ||
fill out the anonymous | ||
[Code of Conduct violation form](https://airtable.com/shrl5mEF4Eun1aIDm). | ||
3. The Qiskit Community will open an investigation upon receiving your form | ||
entry. When reporting, please include any relevant details, links, | ||
screenshots, context, or other information that may be used to better | ||
understand and resolve the situation. | ||
4. If the code of conduct violation occurs at an event and requires immediate | ||
response or contains a concern about an individual attending an upcoming | ||
event, contact the event's on-call Code of Conduct point of contact listed | ||
in the event specific code of conduct document. If you don't feel comfortable | ||
speaking to the point of contact in person, fill out a Code of Conduct | ||
violation form entry and include the details of the event so that the Code of | ||
Conduct enforcement board can contact the event's on-call Code of Conduct | ||
point of contact. | ||
5. If an IBM employee witnesses a Code of Conduct violation at any time, such as | ||
at events, in a Slack channel, or open source forums, it is their | ||
responsibility to file a Code of Conduct violation report. | ||
|
||
This Code of Conduct does not supersede existing IBM corporate policies, such as | ||
the IBM Business Conduct Guidelines and IBM Business Partner Code of Conduct. | ||
IBM employees must follow IBM's Business Conduct Guidelines. IBM's business | ||
partners must follow the IBM Business Partner Code of Conduct. IBM employees | ||
concerned with a fellow IBMer's behavior should follow IBM's own internal HR | ||
reporting protocols, which include engaging the offending IBMer's manager and | ||
involving IBM Concerns and Appeals. IBM employees concerned with an IBM | ||
business partner's behavior should notify tellibm@us.ibm.com. | ||
All members of this project agree to adhere to the Qiskit Code of Conduct listed at [docs.quantum.ibm.com/open-source/code-of-conduct](https://docs.quantum.ibm.com/open-source/code-of-conduct) |
